A Pet Franchise

Is starting my own pet sitting and dog walking business a good move?

We think so! Sitter4Paws has pet franchise opportunities specifically tailored for those who love pets and want the freedom of being their own boss. You’ll not only become part of one of the highest rated pet sitting companies around but you’ll also become part of our rapidly growing family.

We are in an industry (pet) that has proven growth every year since 1994 and with pet ownership currently on the rise, owning a pet sitting and dog walking franchise is not only an attractive idea, but also a financially secure one.

And yes, we are aware that walking dogs around the neighborhood only requires a few flyers, but with our proven strategies we can help you turn that “job” into a real business. You’ll employ dozens of sitters as well as office staffers and managers to help you serve thousands of clients.

Starting your own business can be quite scary and challenging, especially during the first couple of years. So to help our franchisees alleviate those growing pains we provide them with training, tools and first class support to guarantee their utmost success.
